[PATCH RFC 3/4] mm, slab: introduce kmem_cache_charge()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As suggested by Linus, introduce a slab API function to memcg-charge a
an object that was previously allocated without __GFP_ACCOUNT and from a
cache that's not SLAB_ACCOUNT. This may be useful when it's likely the
object is to be freed soon, and thus the charging/uncharging overhead
can be avoided.

In case kmem_cache_charge() is called on an already-charged object, it's
a no-op.
